Daewoong Pharmaceutical announced on the 17th that it has obtained the '2025 Health-Friendly Company Certification,' which is overseen by the Ministry of Health and Welfare and the Korea Health Promotion Institute.

The 'Health-Friendly Company Certification System' was newly established in 2022 based on Article 6-2 of the National Health Promotion Act. It strictly evaluates overall health management, including the creation of a health-friendly environment in the workplace, employee health management systems, and employee satisfaction, and certifies companies that operate exemplary health-friendly systems.

Daewoong Pharmaceutical was highly recognized for its capabilities in operating customized health management programs. The company was especially noted for establishing a system that encompasses digital healthcare and chronic disease and obesity management, centered around the musculoskeletal improvement exercise program 'Daewoong Keeper' at the Healience Core Exercise Center.

Since 2015, Daewoong Pharmaceutical has been operating its in-house exercise program 'Daewoong Keeper' in collaboration with the specialized healthcare institution Healience Core Exercise Center. The program consists of group exercise and one-on-one customized exercise sessions.

The group exercise focuses on improving musculoskeletal issues that commonly arise from prolonged sedentary work, such as forward head posture, rounded shoulders, lower back discomfort, and pelvic imbalance. The one-on-one customized exercise analyzes each employee's physical condition and exercise goals to help relieve pain and improve fitness and body shape. Through detailed coaching, it supports the formation of sustainable exercise habits. This systematic exercise program not only contributes to restoring physical function and alleviating pain but also enhances work engagement. As a result, it has achieved the highest S grade in employee satisfaction surveys for two consecutive years.

Daewoong Keeper also operates programs for mental health recovery in addition to physical health. Through singing bowl and lying-down meditation programs, it helps stabilize both body and mind. Recently, the company has introduced 'healing nap,' which combines caffeine nap, breathing, stretching, aroma, and sound meditation, to support fatigue recovery.
